 Walter Edward Dandy (www.whonamedit.com)
Walter Edward Dandy was a pioneer in surgery of the posterior skull cavity and intracranial vascular surgery.
Initially Dandy studied X-ray changes in 100 patients with intracranial symptoms suggestive of a new growth and showed this technique on its own to be of limited value, destruction of the sella turcia due to increased pressure being a late phenomenon.
Dandy proved that it was possible to conduct intracranial surgery with an acceptable mortality, and without causing severe neurological problems in his patients postoperatively.

 Yankee Doodle Dandy (1942)
The nostalgic, shamelessly-patriotic, entertaining film also supported the war effort as it paid tribute in its mostly fictional story to a popular Irish/American entertainer and the grand American gentleman of the theatre in the early 20th century.

It soon became apparent that the Portland, OR-based quartet wasn't a joke, though leadman Co...

 Lyrics and Music
Back in Pre-Revolutionary America when the song "Yankee Doodle" was first popular, the singer was not referring to the pasta "macaroni" in the line that reads "stuck a feather in his hat and called it macaroni".
So by just sticking a feather in his cap and calling himself a "Macaroni" (a "dandy"), Yankee Doodle was proudly proclaiming himself to be a country bumpkin, because that was how the English regarded most colonials at that time.
But times have long since changed, and it is important to reflect on the fact that despite the turbulent early relationship between England and the American colonists, our two countries are strongly united.
